Tension headaches are the most common type of headaches. The pain from a tension headache is constant and can spread throughout your neck and upper back causing sore muscles or even dizziness.
The most common causes of tension headaches are:
- Forward Head Posture (FHP)
- Subluxations
- Poor posture
- Anxiety
- Stress
- Food Allergies
Though pain relievers such as aspirin, ibuprofen or acetaminophen can mask the pain from a tension headache, they don’t address headache cause and frequent use can create unwanted side effects.
